A memorial service for Donna Summer was held Wednesday at the Christ Presbyterian Church in Nashville, Tenn., where the disco icon had resided since 1995.

The service was attended by her family and close friends, including Tony Orlando, Jamal Anderson and Giorgio Moroder, her collaborator on her wildly influential and career-defining early hits "Love to Love You Baby," "I Feel Love" and "Last Dance."
